We too had to replace our versa wheels typically once an event for a full set and then half-way through the event we would replace the middle ones.
We switched to AM HiGrips for IRI and while they might not start with as much traction compared to a fresh "cleat" like versa wheel they do last much longer. We are still running the same wheels (minus two that broke during our fall in Semi 1.2) after a ton of drive practice and we haven't noticed a drop in performance whereas we could tell when our versas were worn down.
With the current design, would you have to remove an entire drive assembly to remove a wheel?
